Liked: We've just returned home from a wonderful 5 night stay at Gwastad Bach. The location is brilliant, less than 10 miles to the beach (highly recommend Fishguard for crabbing, swimming and paddleboarding), and very rural - just what we like. The site is big enough for each camper to have lots of space, and the kids had loads of space to play. Facilities are great, clean toilets and showers plus hot water for washing and the added bonus of a freezer for ice blocks and sockets for charging devices. We received a warm welcome from the owner and our kids were thrilled to make friends with owners children. There are sheep, and chickens that visit the camping field. There is absolutely no light pollution at night and it's so quiet and still, absolutely beautiful. If you are looking for real camping, with the added bonus of facilities then this is the place to go!

Liked: Went down on a recommendation from friends as I wanted to get a bit of diving in over the weekend down in Pembroke. Amazing site, looks to be quite a new venture but the facilities were top notch. Views getting up in the morning made the drive worthwhile and the hosts were just so welcoming.
Disliked: Not a flipping thing.

Liked: This is the perfect getaway place. Great scenery and the new addition of the showers is great. The family run site is just taking off and they have got the perfect plan. It’s basic for that wild feel but still has the amenities to make your stay that bit easier.
Disliked: Was only there 1 night.

Liked: The location is so idyllic with beautiful views all around. A new toilet and shower block had just been completed and constructed to fit in perfectly with the surroundings. The site owners are hands on and responsive, without being intrusive. This isn't Glamping by any stretch of the imagination, this is more simple style camping with a few comforts thrown in (Toilets, hot showers and washing up area) The ability to set up your own BBQ on pitch and also light up a fire pit (materials available on site) was an added bonus. Local store available nearby if you forgot to bring something. Didn't have the grandchildren with me this time but will make sure to bring them with me next time because they will love interacting with the Animals. This camp site provided everything that it offered in its description.
Disliked: Apart from having to leave the peace and quiet and head back to the hustle and bustle, there was nothing to dislike
